No one will tool up for mag cases, not even Porsche, if we do see early cases repopped they will be aluminum.
Yup. Agree completely. That's what keeps folk like me paying to save an old mag case.
Porsche is such an odd company in the sense that they don't reproduce even a decent supply of 80's vintage cases. I've seen claims in the dealerships something to the effect of 70% of porsches are still on the road. Used to be in mid 80%'s back in the mid-80's. Not much thanks to Porsche directly. Even back in mid to late 80's lots of parts were already NLA for teeners.
In my opinion, those numbers on the road speak to the strength of the Porsche aftermarket (Thanks 914 Rubber, AA, RD, and all you guys refurb'ing parts in your garages) and the passion for the brand that even Porsche seems to be lacking lately.
Really odd considering how 911 cases were so similar and interchangeable/upgradeable over the years from 3R cases right up though the last of the 7R mag cases.
